The diesel is the efficiency leader in the C-Class, with the C 220d rated at 23 kmpl. The 1.5 litre petrol C 200 follows at 16.9 kmpl, and the 2.0 litre C 300 reads 15 kmpl. These are ARAI numbers, so real traffic and a heavy right foot will trim them. Tie each figure to its C-Class engine and trim, then weigh what that version costs to buy.

Mileage is how far the C-Class travels on one litre of fuel (or one kg of CNG). A bigger number means you spend less on fuel. Carmakers quote an ARAI lab figure; in real driving you get a bit less, so both are shown below.

5 easy ways to get better mileage

Small habits add up to real fuel savings on your C-Class.

  1. 1Keep tyres at the right pressureSoft tyres drag and burn more fuel. Check them once a month.
  2. 2Go easy on the pedalSmooth acceleration and braking beat quick starts and hard stops.
  3. 3Don't carry dead weightAn empty boot and roof help. Extra load means extra fuel.
  4. 4Use the AC wiselyAt city speeds the AC adds load. On the highway, closed windows help.
  5. 5Service on timeA clean air filter and fresh oil keep the engine sipping, not gulping.

Mercedes-Benz C-Class mileage: common questions

Which C-Class is the most fuel efficient?

The C 220d diesel at 23 kmpl, well ahead of the petrols. It suits buyers who rack up long highway miles each month.

How efficient is the petrol C-Class?

The C 200 is rated at 16.9 kmpl and the more powerful C 300 at 15 kmpl. Mild-hybrid assistance helps both in slow city traffic.

Will I see the ARAI figures in daily driving?

Usually a little under them. City congestion, air conditioning and quick acceleration all pull real mileage below the rated numbers.
